What Will They Think!

Criticism is a fear many people have. We become paralyzed by what people may think, feel, or do, because of it.

To avoid criticism is do not nothing, say nothing, and be nothing. Elbert Hubbard

Everyone has an opinion. People will talk, regardless of what you do or don’t do. So go out and make things happen for yourself.

If we don’t take chances we stifle our ability to live the life we truly desire. What will they think? This usually stems from childhood and being shamed. We are afraid to do something different, because our family won’t approve. The neighbors will think badly of us or our “friends” will no longer like us.

Teachers, relatives, friends and all the people closest to you will try to talk you out of the idea you want to express. Stay strong in your conviction and persevere.

All the people who accomplished anything great in their lives had to go through this test of criticism.

A mystical power will aid you along the way of your dreams if you persistently refuse to give up. The fear of criticism will be overcome and you will triumph when you believe in yourself strong enough. Persistence creates faith, and faith is the only antidote for failure.
